    Good afternoon,

    The screen going blank when you lock the computer is what's supposed to happen.

    I don't know why you can't wake it up again.

    You might be able to SSH to it from another computer to determine whether it's crashed, or just isn't getting keyboard/mouse input, or what.

    the system doesn't crash, even when it timeout from inactivity it does the same thing...

    fixed the black screen issue with locking account or logging out. - this was fixed my making sure I used the nvidia drivers.

    however when the computer times out or goes to sleep I just get the black screen.
